“…Ten studies examined recent testing [25, 27–29, 35–40], which varied extensively from 76.1% in Canada (N = 435) [25] to 22% in China (N = 970) [38]. Six studies addressed willingness to test [18–20, 28, 41, 42], and this ranged from 88% (N = 17) in China [41] to 73.2% in India (N = 6648) [18]. Three studies reported that willingness facilitated actual HIV testing [20, 28, 41].…”

“…In comparison to MSM who had never tested for HIV, men who had tested for HIV in the past year were more likely to have never had sex with women, have had male anal sex partners in the past 3 months, and more likely to have disclosed their sexual orientation to others (Table 5). Previous studies have shown that higher education and self-perceived risk for HIV are positively correlated with history of HIV testing (Han et al, 2014; Xun et al, 2013). Further, in China close to one-half of MSM are likely to be married (Chen et al, 2012).…”

Greacen, et al 32 queried 5908 HIV-uninfected MSM in France through an internet-based survey who denied being aware of oral fluid rapid HIV self-testing; of these MSM, 87% showed interest in using the test.…”
